Producer stated preference for hypothetical new winter wheat varieties on the Canadian Prairies
DownloadSpring 2010
This research project gauges producer demand on the Canadian Prairies for the attributes of new hypothetical varieties of winter wheat. Data collected from a survey of producers in Western Canada is used to determine the values and attitudes of producers regarding new winter wheat variety traits...

Saproxylic Beetles (Coleoptera) Associated With Aspen Deadwood in Broad-Leaved Boreal Mixedwood Stands
DownloadFall 2012
I assessed deadwood-associated (i.e., ‘saproxylic’) beetles (Coleoptera) along a decay gradient of trembling aspen in mature deciduous stands of the boreal mixedwood forest in NW Alberta. Various collection methods were employed to sample saproxylic beetle species. Assemblages differed between...

Fraser, Jordie D., Bonnett, Tiffany R., Keeling, Christopher I., Huber, Dezene P.W.
Winter mortality is a major factor regulating population size of the mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). Glycerol is the major cryoprotectant in this freeze intolerant insect. We report findings from a gene expression study on an overwintering...

The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a significant destructive force in the pine forests of western Canada and has the capacity to spread east into a novel host tree species, jack pine (Pinaceae). New populations have been documented in central...

Chiu, Christine C., Keeling, Christopher I., Bohlmann, Joerg
The recent outbreak of the mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae; MPB) has afected over 20M hectares of pine forests in western North America. During the colonization of host trees, female MPB release the aggregation pheromone (−)-trans-verbenol. (−)-trans-Verbenol is thought to...
